There was spent 12 ga. shotgun shell in the hotel parking lot this morning.
The book store in the same business complex as the hotel has a sign on the entry door stating that firearms are prohibited inside.

OK, the shell could have been fired anywhere and been dropped in the parking lot, but a no-carry reminder sign on a book store?

It's not just the Canuk that is puzzled, this Yank is too.

I don't know how it is in that particular location, but in my state that allows CCW, owners of private property (stores, for instance) have the option of not allowing CCW on their property.... By posting a properly designed sign.

CCW holders have the option of shopping elsewhere.

One other thing to think about.... If the weapon is concealed (!) how does the property owner know that you have violated his prohibition?? In my state, they can only ask you to leave and as long as you do leave when asked, no charges can be brought against you.
